Chiang Mai Flower Festival
Chiang Mai Flower Festival is a three-day celebration that takes place every February, at the end of the cool season. Also known as the Rose of the North, Chiang Mai bursts with colours during the festival. The focus of the festival is at the Suan Buak Haad public garden. You can see displays of beautiful flowers indigenous to Chiang Mai and Northern Thailand, such as Damask rose and yellow and white chrysanthemums. There are also plenty of vendors selling flowers, such as orchids and other garden decorations.
In addition to the beautiful botanical displays, you can also witness parades of floral floats, horticultural competitions, and the Miss Chiang Mai Flower Festival. The main parade takes place on the Saturday morning, with huge flower floats, traditional music, and dances. The candidates for the Miss Chiang Mai Flower Festival usually sit atop these flower floats.
